I ended up reworking this even further, to now wrap everything in a loop that waits for ffmpeg to exit and continues re-spawning if it wasn't a purposeful kill, since connections and encoding can both be extremely glitchy.

Combined with running this as a cron every 10 minutes to recover from uncaught issues, it's now probably as stable as it could be.

Should be the final version - I think I'm completely happy with it at last! ๐Ÿ˜Š

I think this is a really cool feature!

We're currently experimenting with systemd sysext, sysupdate and friends for an auto-updating immutable OS thingie, and this fits so nicely.

A study by Climate Central published on Monday found the sea surface temperature around Miltonโ€™s path was 400-800 times more likely because of the climate crisis.

โ€œIf humans keep heating the climate, we will keep seeing storms rapidly morph into monster hurricanes, leading to more destructionโ€

This BBC News article tells us "Simon uploaded some of his father's images to a photo sharing site" and "posted the picture on social media last weekend" - but includes no links to either of them

what is it with journalist's aversion to linking out to stuff? I am also annoyed by this, especially when journo's report on newly published research.
in reply to Ross Mounce

@rmounce It could be related to users posting on some proprietary platforms, and journalists not wanting (or not being allowed) to advertise those platforms.

Which would be a very good reason :)

in reply to Ross Mounce

It's abject. Even worse when it's science reporters, even at reputable outlets like the @guardian, reporting ON A SPECIFIC PAPER but not linking to it or even giving a reference. Just "... a paper published today in the Journal of Ambivalent Biomes" or whatever.

โ€œWith a 2-year-old son and a baby girl due Oct. 29, Curnick and her husband said they started packing Monday to evacuate, but couldnโ€™t find any available hotel rooms, and the few they came by were too expensive.

She said there were too many unanswered questions if they got in the car and left: where to sleep, if theyโ€™d be able to fill up their gas tank, and if they could even find a safe route out of Floridaโ€

โ€ฆโ€œMore than 60% of gas stations in Tampa and St. Petersburg were out of gas Wednesday afternoonโ€

Imagine in say 10 yearsโ€™ time, when the storm hadnโ€™t been a cat 3 downgrading to cat 2, but instead had made landfall as cat 5 andโ€ฆ thereโ€™s not enough gas long before the storm arrives and no way to replenish mastodon.social/@urlyman/11169โ€ฆ

Thatโ€™d only need to happen a few times for large parts of Florida to be effectively abandoned by the federal government ๐Ÿ˜ฅ

โ€ฆWhen capitalism wonโ€™t stand up in a region, capitalism will cut its losses, and leave. Homes and businesses wonโ€™t be insurable. Capital for repair will dry up. Looong before sea level rise inundates.

And believing that the weather had been created by evil scientists and voting for dangerous fools like De Santis wonโ€™t have helped at all.

Hurricane Milton ripped off large swaths of Tropicana Fieldโ€™s roof late Wednesday, as the powerful storm tore through the Tampa Bay region.

1. Click the proper icon
2. Click on โ€œQuote Postโ€
3. Click on my profile photo
4. Select another profile (I have four, for reasons)
5. Click on the post to open it
6. Click on the proper icon
7. Click on โ€œRepostโ€ (1/5)

in reply to Marlene Breitenstein Art

Thank you for the feedback. You could actually just do the first 4 steps and then tap the Repost button on the Quote Post composer. (When you donโ€™t have any input text, the send button is replaced by a repost button)

La moderazione di Instagram e #Threads รจ fuori controllo. Adam Mosseri afferma che sta "stando indagando", poichรฉ post e account scompaiono, compreso il mio.

#Meta sta attualmente bannando e limitando gli utenti a un grilletto facile. Una delle mie colleghe รจ stata bloccata fuori dal suo account per un breve periodo questa settimana dopo aver scherzato dicendo che "voleva morire" a causa di un'ondata di calore.

Grazie a @filippodb per la segnalazione
